Eventhough rainforest only constitute less than 10% from total forest in the world, more than half of plants species are found there. However, the native plants and animal species in the world's tropical rainforests are becoming extinct due to deforestration and agricultural expansion. Deforestration increases the level of greenhouse gases, contributes to global climate change, soil erosion, drought and flooding.

Taman Negara is the most extensive protected area of pristine, lowland, evergreen rainforest in Malaysia. The stated purpose of Taman Negara is "to utilise the land within the park in perpetuity, for the propagation, protection and preservation of indigeneous flora and fauna".

D a t i n g back over 130 million years, Taman Negara is one of world’s oldest tropical rainforest. Taman Negara rainforest, however, was blessed with a location far enough away from the ice that it developed 130 million years ago - far earlier than those of Africa and Latin America. The forest itself is one of the most ancient on the planet, far older than the equatorial forests of the Amazon or the Congo. It has for tens of thousands of years been the home of nomadic forest people, and ancient civilizations have flourished as well as disappeared in its vastness.
